I’ve done tricks and then tried to land on the ground, only to have the board pointing at a 45-degree angle for some reason, which leads to my bird absolutely eating tar. The bird is more like a fish in the air, flopping around without any sense of direction. Skating in Skatebird has all the grace of a bird on a skateboard, which is precisely none at all. What’s much, much harder to have any influence over is whether you actually successfully land after performing a trick. You decide when your bird does a grab or grind. That’s about the best part of Skatebird: It’s easy to control. One button does an ollie, another does grinds, another does grabs, etc. The game sticks to its arcade style, with each face button controlling one move. It’s a bummer to say, but Skatebird‘s goofy story and silly jokes are the stars here. Skatebird‘s story is one pun after another, all with a subtle background of anti-capitalist sentiment, and if the idea of capitalism-hating birds doesn’t put a smile on your face, I’m begging you to get a sense of humor. In short, the bird’s owner has a crappy job at a crappy tech startup, which the birds naturally sabotage, first by diverting the boss’ AC out of his office and to everyone else, and then by destroying servers and more. Skatebird‘s story is one pun after another, all with a subtle background of anti-capitalist sentiment …
Unfortunately, Big Friend is feeling down, so the skating bird, along with a flock of others, decides to escape from the room, figure out why the friend is so miserable, and fix the issue with the power of skating. You thought Skatebird wouldn’t make a Tony Hawk joke?Īfter a quick introduction, players are thrown right into the game’s first area: A massive bedroom that belongs to their bird’s Big Friend. Naturally, I went with a cowboy hat that always stayed on. The game has all the trappings of a typical arcade skating game, starting with character customization, with players able to choose what kind of bird they want to be and what goofy accessories they want to wear. In Skatebird, you grind, flip, and chirp (or as the game calls it, “screm”) across mundane areas as a tiny, gnarly bird. The entire premise of Skatebird is written in its name, and if you’re not used to jokes like that, just leave this review now. But it will at least brighten up your day. It’s a goofy arcade skateboarding game filled with fun dialogue and silly references that doesn’t promise to give anyone the skating game of their dreams. Instead, Skatebird is here for folks to have a fun, albeit sometimes frustrating time.

Now we have Skatebird, which swoops out of nowhere and immediately shows that while it’s not going to take away the crown from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, it was also never designed to. SkateBIRD - Announcement Trailer - Nintendo Switch
